Lease End Approaching

Has anyone used AHFC as the finance company? Is so, can they do it over the phone or do you have to go to the dealer? Obviously, I want to buy the car.

Thanks in advance for the feedback.

How much is it to purchase the car? I just want to know.

I used Capital One for my purchase. Rates were lower. I would shop around a bit. Call your bank and see what they quote you.

You have to do to a dealer & get a pre-lease end inspection, Be aware you also get a $1500 allowance to cover things like tires, or big dents etc. That's if your turning it in.

To buy it out you call AHF & get your buy out price. It should be the residual price in the lease. Then you can finance that with AHF, or with another loan. You can do the paper work & fax everything to them. Or you can go to a dealer & have them do everything & pay them a fee.

My payoff in May will be $13,950. I'm keeping the car because I only have 19,500 miles on it. I am going to talk to my bank, AHFC and I was also going to talk to my credit card company to see what they can do for me. If AHFC puts me through the ringer on a loan, I wouldn't even be worth dealing with them but I do want to see what they can do.

Well that's good. I just don't want to have to deal with the dealer; don't mind doing the leg work.

Thanks.
